Chapter 1274: The Man with the White Mist
“Do it! Don’t let any of them go!” Yue Xiaoxian, who barred the road before the woman with a short ponytail from Huaxia Base, gave her order with a cold voice, then raised a hand and sent a massive wave of wind blades toward the latter.
Jingyan and Yan Xiao, who were by her sides, disappeared from where they were and soon showed up above the enemy as they launched surprise attacks. The two fire power possessors each let out an enormous fireball toward those Huaxia people.
The Huaxia woman smiled on seeing Yue Xiaoxian release the wind blades, then raised both arms and built a huge wind wall to protect herself. She was a wind power possessor as well. Moreover, no wind-powered human beings below level-seven could hurt her.
Under Qiu Lili’s leadership, all the zombies had restrained their vibes and tried their best to cover their zombie vibe using their superpower energies. Therefore, the Huaxia people only sensed their energies and thought they were just human beings.
Those Huaxia people wondered why they all wore sunglasses in the middle of the night. Did those sunglasses have some kind of special function?
Unexpectedly, the woman’s windshield failed to stop Yue Xiaoxian’s sharp wind blades.
Puff! Puff! Puff! The inch-wide, palm-long wind blades pierced through the wind wall, blowing at the woman without slowing down.
“What!” The woman was surprised to see her wind power fail to block the enemy. But, she didn’t have the time to feel surprised, because the wind blades were coming at her. She hurriedly leaped high and moved toward the other side. However, before she rose into the sky, a kick was launched to her from behind, and she didn’t even notice that.
Thud! The woman only had the time to let out a muffled moan before she was thrown to the ground.
She flew up tens of meters high in the sky, then was thrown back to the ground from that altitude. She didn’t even have time to react before she fell onto the cement ground and lay there for a while without being able to struggle up.
“Eh-hem-hem… Pah!” A breath of air was stuck in her chest because of the sudden impact. She tried to prop up her body with her elbows, but once she raised her head, a stream of blood gushed out of her mouth.
Right at that moment, another wave of wind blades came down at her.
At that point, no one could spare any attention to help her. So, she used all her strength and rolled to the side.
Puff! Puff! Puff! Over a hundred wind blades landed on the area where she was lying before, creating a series of small holes on the ground. The woman managed to dodge, but a few wounds were left on her body by some wind blades nonetheless. Blood immediately flowed out of those wounds.
At that moment, the other Huaxia people finally found out that none of their enemies was weaker than themselves, and the number of the enemy was larger than their own by two or three times over! That meant each of them had to deal with two or three as strong as themselves!
Realizing that, all Huaxia people wore a very sullen face.
On the other side, Qiu Lili had started a face-to-face battle against the man. His white mist was special. However, facing Qiu Lili’s wind and fire power, it was useless.
The mist around the man grew thicker and thicker, and he soon disappeared in it. Qiu Lili quickly waved both arms and brought down a few enormous tornadoes that connected the sky and the earth. The tornadoes did not only dissipate the mist, but also rolled up the surrounding buildings and trees, and everything else.
Qiu Lili swung her arm again and sent a few flame streams into the tornadoes. The fire grew large in the wind within a blink and burned the sky red.
Soon, the short man showed up.
His white mist surprised Qiu Lili. Both his vibe and scent were gone once he released the mist. That was a great skill of hiding. Not even Qiu Lili’s zombie nose could detect him when he was hiding in that mist.
Thankfully, by combining her wind and fire power, she dissipated the thick cloud of white mist. If the mist spread to seven or eight hundred miles away, it would be hard for her to locate the man.
Qiu Lili sent out fiery wind blades to the man once he was spotted. As a level-seven being, her wind blades were faster than Yue Xiaoxian’s by ten times over. Within a blink, the wind blades approached the man.
Along with a series of shrill swishing sound, the wind blades created a few large holes in the building that the man hid into.
Bang! The wall soon collapsed.
However, the short man disappeared again.
Qiu Lili narrowed her eyes and sniffed at the air, then turned and fixed her eyes on an area and moved that way swiftly.
At that time, in the Base Number Two in All Beings Base, something was happening in the lab next to Leng Xuantong’s.
Shui Mingjun was holding a small test tube, looking at the liquid in it while asking Yan Huiguang, who had his eyes on the data showing on the screen of a device nearby, “Are you sure it’s gonna work this time?”
Yan Huiguang responded to him coldly and expressionlessly while staring at the device, “Just give it a try and find out. Why do you ask me?”
Shui Mingjun was used to his bad attitude. Before, he didn’t like talking much, and currently, he only talked with that mean attitude. Shui Mingjun didn’t even know whom to blame for that.
He thought for a moment, then murmured to himself, “I’m not a zombie, so how am I supposed to try it. I need to ask for someone’s help… Maybe I should ask Leng Xuantong’s wife to give it a try.”
Next, he turned and left the lab with the test tube as he walked to Leng Xuantong’s lab. Soon, he found the latter in a corner of the lab and said, “Director Leng Xuantong, come on, I need a favor from you.”
“What?” Leng Xuantong looked at him questioningly.
“Can I borrow your wife?” Shui Mingjun said to him.
Leng Xuantong furrowed his brows. Before he said anything, Shui Mingjun continued, “Don’t misunderstand me. Look at this.”
He raised the test tube to show Leng Xuantong the drug in while , saying, “We’ve been working on this recently. If it works on your wife, it’ll be considered highly helpful for the entire zombie army in this base!”
Leng Xuantong’s interest was instantly aroused. “What are you guys working on this time?”
